Why teams connect YugabyteDB and Zendesk

Mirror Zendesk's data into YugabyteDB so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.

Engineers integrate with tools like Zendesk through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in YugabyteDB.

Stacksync mirrors Tickets, Tickets Comments, Users, Organizations from Zendesk into Materialized Views, Schemas, Sequences, CDC Streams in YugabyteDB and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Zendesk, so the tool and the database never disagree.

Common use cases

  • Sync tickets, users, and organizations into Postgres so support analytics run on SQL instead of repeated API pulls.
  • Write CRM account tier, owner, and renewal data onto Zendesk organizations and ticket fields so agents see context in the ticket.
  • Two-way sync between YugabyteDB application tables and a CRM so product data and account records stay consistent.
  • Sync reference data such as pricing or entitlements from an ERP into YugabyteDB for globally distributed low-latency reads.

One integration pattern for the whole stack

Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.

Read Zendesk with a query

Records from Zendesk are ordinary rows in YugabyteDB; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Zendesk from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in YugabyteDB and Stacksync propagates the change into Zendesk, replacing custom integration code.

What you can sync between YugabyteDB and Zendesk

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

YugabyteDB objects Zendesk objects
Indexes Global secondary indexes maintained transactionally alongside table writes. Organizations Company groupings for users; typically kept aligned with CRM accounts.
Materialized Views Precomputed query results available in YSQL for read-side shaping. Attachments Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Schemas Postgres-style namespaces in YSQL used to organize synced data. Ticket Forms Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Sequences ID generation objects relevant when syncing writes into YSQL tables. Tickets The central work object; synced to databases for SLA and volume reporting or mirrored into engineering tools.
CDC Streams Change streams over the storage-layer WAL consumed through logical replication or Debezium-compatible connectors. Tickets Comments Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs.
Databases and Keyspaces Top-level containers for the YSQL (Postgres-style) and YCQL (Cassandra-style) APIs respectively. Users End users and agents; matched to CRM contacts to keep requester data consistent.
